Shoo summer!

It's getting into the 70s again and it had best check itself out there since I don't want any heat waves THINKING about hanging out. I don't think it's forecast to get any warmer but I thought it needed said. Summer was LONG ENOUGH and I want a nice stretch of cool/cold (but not insanely cold) AUTUMN weather, dagnabbit.

I still haven't had a nice cup of mulled apple cider yet or even had some real orchard-picked apples yet. The leaves haven't all completely fallen and a few trees even have those nice deep red colored leaves. Love those. 

In other November news, who voted today? I normally wouldn't bother for local stuff but I actually know one of the candidates for school board so had to show my support, y'know!

Yeah, that's all I've got for now. Busy day!

Kinda sorta maybe met a neighbor?

I may or may not have greeted the upstairs neighbor, but if it wasn't her, it may be someone living below her. I'd have introduced myself but I was heading to the car to go to work this morning and I didn't put on a jacket and it was chilly. But the brief interaction was pleasant and so next time I'll do the proper thing.

The neighbor thought came up since I'm wondering if it's her or someone else that might go outside to smoke. It wouldn't be so bad but after a lifetime of secondhand smoke from Mom and then not being exposed to it for years, I'm very sensitive to the smell when it drifts in from the window fans.  Hopefully they heard my coughing as I switched one of the fans to outside circulation and mayyyybe will walk a little further from below my window. Hopefully.
